Do you all use a special fitting or tool. We're looking to see what all is out there...
Thanks, Lynn

Lynn, what engine/airframe? Can't think of anything I've needed a special adapter to get to the rear bank from the front side on.

Ok, from your description of 'rear bank' I assumed you were dealing with a twin row engine. I've always checked compression from the front so the normal adapters work fine. If you are checking by removing the rear plugs then that's a whole 'nuther matter getting to the lower cylinders. Not sure what could help there.

Roger that, we cut a fitting off and used some rubber hoses. I was thinking there has to be a better set up. How are you liking Uvalde? My Grandfather built the first high school there which is now the school district HQ now.

Uvalde is ok, crazy amount of traffic for no bigger than it is. Sounds like ya'll found an answer to your situation. Stop by the hangar if you ever pass through. We are in the single red hangar next to the fuel farm on the west side.
